Unlocking Efficiency
with Custom Add-ins for Autodesk software
At CADonist, we are a team of mechanical engineers and software developers with a deep understanding of Autodesk software and engineering workflows. This allows us to create custom add-ins and ready-to-use solutions that improve productivity by simplifying complex tasks.
The Power of Industry Experience
What sets us apart from other software developers is the deep industry experience our team possesses. Our engineers have firsthand experience with the challenges and pain points that professionals face daily. We understand how difficult and time-consuming it can be to manage large amounts of data or ensure the accuracy of your designs and documentation.
This understanding allows us to develop solutions that are not only efficient but also intuitive and highly effective in solving real-world problems. We know the ins and outs of the software, and we use that knowledge to design tools that address specific needs and help engineers in their work.
Real-World Use Cases:
Solving Complex Challenges
Here are a few real-life examples of how we have helped clients


Data Export
A client in the quality control department required a way to quickly extract dimensions from AutoCAD drawings and export them into an Excel file. This task, when done manually, could take up to an hour and was prone to errors.
The add-in we created, optimized the entire process, automatically exporting the data in seconds while tagging each dimension to ensure clarity in the Excel table. This saved the client valuable time and eliminated the risk of manual errors, making the workflow much more efficient.
Metadata Automatization
A client in the metal construction industry needed a quick and accurate way to mark metal plates with specific data, such as length, width, and thickness. These data points were essential for directing the materials to the correct machines for further processing. The traditional method was too slow and error-prone.
With our add-in, the "Stock Number" field in each part is filled in automatically in a fraction of a second, giving the engineers more time to focus on creative tasks while ensuring accuracy in material processing.
Documentation Generation
Creating technical documentation is often a tedious and time-consuming process, especially when it comes to generating and managing technical drawings. The client needed to streamline this process by automating the generation of basic views and dimensioning for technical drawings.
Our add-in solves the first part of the problem by quickly locating the parts on the disk and generating 100 drawings with the basic front view in less than a minute. The user can then make adjustments, add relevant views, or modify settings as necessary. This significantly speeds up the process, allowing engineers to focus on the more complex aspects of the design.
